Description:
- This album contains drawings of architectural ornament - mostly highly finished - by Charles and Georges Rohault de Fleury. Although primarily from unidentified sources (DR1974:0002:026:002 - DR1974:0002:026:025, and DR1974:0002:026:038), there are a few drawings with identified sources, and twelve drawings of architectural ornament submitted by Georges to the Concours d'émulation (monthly competitions) held at the École impériale des beaux-arts, Paris. The subject matter of the drawings of architectural ornament from unidentified sources consists of capitals, friezes, festoons, moldings, cartouches, and vegetal and floral ornament. Identified subject matter includes a Composite capital and entablature from the Louvre (DR1974:0002:026:024), details from the Temple of Jupiter Stator, Rome (DR1974:0002:026:007 and DR1974:0002:026:013), and a Corinthian capital from Hôtel Soltykoff, Paris (DR1974:0002:026:038). The drawings for the Concours d'émulation by Georges are numbered "1er" to "12e" and were submitted to concours dating from 16 June 1857 to 22 October 1858 (DR1974:0002:026:026 - DR1974:0002:026:037). An unbound sheet inserted in the front of the album may be a portrait of Charles Rohault de Fleury (DR1974:0002:026:001).

Description:
- Michele Marieschi was a short-lived Venetian vedutista whose small graphic output was limited almost exclusively to this group of twenty-one etchings. The album is a modern-bound collection of the first edition (before the addition of plate numbers) of Marieschi's prints. The prints were all designed and etched by Marieschi himself, with only two exceptions. The frontpiece, with its portrait of Marieschi (and proud proclamation of his status as painter and architect) was drawn by Anzolo Trivisan (Angelo Trevisani, 1669-after 1753) and engraved by Carlo Orsolini (1710-1780). The dedication to the Prince of Beauvau-Craon and the prince's coat of arms, which appear below Marieschi's view of the Piazzetta and Ducal Palace, were also engraved by Orsolini. RH - Marieschi was probably called an architect in the frontispiece to this volume of etchings (folio 1) in reference to his activity as a stage designer. Folio 21 gives us an indication of Marieschi's activity as a stage designer. According to Fabio Mauroner (Print Collector's Quarterly, vol. 27), the painted façade shown on the Church of San Rocco on the first state of folio 21 was designed by Marieschi. Here Marieschi is probably illustrating a festival which took place on the saint's feast day, since easel paintings are also shown placed against the façades of the buildings to the right in the square. It is interesting that in the second state of the same folio, another façade is shown, the one added to the church by the architect Macarazzi in 1768. According to the text on the first state of the same folio, the original façade on San Rocco was constructed in marble according to a design by Sebastiano Serlio (Mauroner, pl. 16). In addition, the exaggerated two-point and multi-point perspectives which Marieschi uses in many of his views of Venice, also reveal the influence of the principles of stage set design as illustrated in the contemporary drawings of the Bibiera family.
